To find the probability that a randomly selected adult who works full time from home has a bachelor's degree or higher, we need to add up the percentages in the "Bachelor's degree or higher" and "Some college or associate degree" rows, which gives us 0.29 + 0.35 = 0.64. Therefore, the probability is 0.64 or 64%. Option D is the correct answer.
